Featured Glass - Is This A Perfume Lamp?

Hello Board Buddies - I'm not sure exactly what it is I've got here. The glass portion is about 5 3/4" tall and it sits on a metal base. There is a socket of some type at the bottom of the inside and a small brass cap that sits on the top. The milk glass base seems to have had a ruby spray applied and then was carved back to the white. It has a perfume smell. If anyone could tell me what this is and any other information it would be greatly appreciated.

It could be. The set up would be correct, a light bulb would heat up the perfume & which would create the aroma. Here are a couple examples of DeVilbiss perfume lamps that are similar to yours.

Really Pretty!

 

It's breaking my heart, because mine broke

 

After all that work - and excitement! Just moving crap around, I crashed it into something. R.I.P. Spanish Lady

 

...............I know how that feels..

 

I think we have all been there at least once. I know I have done it a few times myself & it generally just sucks!!!

 

a pair of vintage...hehe... Waterford scotch tumblers slipped from my hands while packing them for a move.......... tears rolling down my eyes !!!
That was indeed a pretty lady , Scouts !!!
Looks like Gila !

 

A beautiful Czech glass Diana with deer in my case. I put her out of the way so I wouldn't drop a heavy book on her, lost my balance and dropped the heavy book on her.

 

Scouts so pretty. I dropped a McCoy mug when getting out of my car after going to many garage sales that day. It shattered. It was the one with the smiley face.

 

Ecstasy tempered with misery - We've all been there, comrades

 

Me too . Still remember the day I came home with an absolutely stunning piece of American Brilliant cut glass and promptly dropped it as I unwrapped it...all I had was a pile of very sparkly slivers of glass...

 

Sad!
Still remember one of my first attempts to remove gunk from a handblown decanter...

I was using comet and salt (gentle!) and - I have no idea why I even had them - BBs!

Swirling away, but I stopped too suddenly - the BBs just crashed straight through the glass!
